Composition

Each 5 ml of oral suspension contains:

• Dexibuprofen 100 mg

• Flavored syrup base and approved excipients

Mechanism of Action

Dexibuprofen works by inhibiting the cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and COX-2), which play a key role in the production of prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are responsible for pain sensation, inflammatory responses, and fever. By reducing prostaglandin synthesis, Dexifen Suspension helps relieve pain, decrease inflammation, and lower elevated body temperature.

Dosage and Administration

Dexifen Suspension is taken orally and should be shaken well before use. The dose is determined based on the patient’s age, body weight, and severity of symptoms. It is preferably administered after meals to reduce the risk of gastrointestinal discomfort. Accurate dosing using a measuring spoon or cup is recommended.
